Reception
editCh. Sushil Rao of The Times of India said that "Over all, it is a fun movie but for the cinematography. It does not give you the feel that you are watching the big picture. Srikanth slips into his role well and the comedy most of the times is not lost on the audience".[6] A critic from The Hans India opined that "The movie is not unique, but a good family entertainer. Srikanth with his stupendous performance dominated all other characters in the movie".[7] Ravi Kandala of Full Hyderabad said that "Malligadu will be forgotten soon, and will surely become a staple on Gemini Movies, that re-runner of mediocre films. You can safely stay away".[8]
